Coges invites you to participate in the Vending Show 2023 in Paris to present all the news for cashless payment in automatic distribution. The important appointment in Paris will return in a renewed guise to Porte de Versailles from 21 to 23 June and Coges will be present together with the company Vendon, European leader in the sector of connectivity for vending and Horeca, which recently joined part of the Azkoyen Group.

Among the most important innovations that you will be able to discover in Paris, the new ENGINE CONNECT payment system deserves a prominent place. ENGINE CONNECT is a further evolution of the COGES ENGINE system equipped with integrated 4G connectivity. This system not only avoids the need for additional telemetry modules, but allows easier connection of credit card readers such as the Ingenico Self 2000 model, avoiding the use of an external router with the consequent costs, dimensions and wiring. ENGINE CONNECT, connected to the NEBULAR platform, is also compatible with the NEBULAR PAY contactless credit card reader, thus offering the Operator the possibility of further expanding its range of payment alternatives based on the needs of individual locations.

Coges will also exhibit its new HEXIS and SOFIS change-giver coin mechanisms at the Vending Show, designed to offer maximum precision both to those who want a complete cashless coin mechanism, full of functions and connectivity ready, and to those who only need a solid and functional MDB peripheral for automatic distribution. There will also be other payment systems for vending by the Italian company, from the CREOS banknote reader to the small DYNAMOS cashless system for MYKEY and MIFARE cashless fobs.

The future of vending is constantly evolving, we are waiting for you at stand C05 to discover all the payment solutions that best suit your needs!

COGES will take part to Vendex Midlands which will be held the 21st of March at Milton Keynes in the United Kingdom to present its solution for a rapid and safe payment without cash.

Vendex is a one-day exhibition devoted to the vending machine sector, an appointment which has been held for 20 years with an increasing success. Coges will be present also this year both at the Coffetek stand – an Azkoyen Group company which is leader in the design and manufacturing of vending machines and coffee machines – and at the Vendon stand – an important European company for telemetry solutions which was recently acquired by the Azkoyen Group.

Coges takes advantage of the event to present its payment systems for the lively and highly technological English market of vending: first of all Nebular Pay credit card reader, the ideal solution to guarantee to its customers the possibility of a rapid purchase with credit card without compromise on the safety of the transaction.  Nebular Pay is a contactless credit card reader, compatible with all the main circuits of physical and virtual cards included Visa, MasterCard, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Nebular Pay works without inserting the card in the reader or the introduction of a PIN, making it perfect for all the locations with a high passage such as airports, public stations, schools and universities, where the customers need to make purchases without missing time and in a simple and convenient way, using for the sector of the uncontrolled sales, the same experience of the retail shops.

In this occasion Coges will show also the functions of the Pay4Vend, the payment app with smartphone for vending machines. Pay4Vend is an app designed to purchase any product from the vending machine by means of the smartphone, as an integration of the cashless payment systems. Its operation is extremely simple: all that the consumer has to do is open the Pay4Vend app on his smartphone, select the vending machine and proceed with the purchase from the machine.

Come and see us at Vendex by the Coffetek  stand (no. 113/114/115) and Vendon one (no. 30), we will be happy to present you the best cashless solutions to guarantee a high satisfaction of your customers in vending!

Coges will present at Venditalia 2022 the new release of the NEBULAR service, an integrated platform of hardware, software and Cloud services designed to provide each Operator with all the payment options and user loyalty he has always wanted. Building on its growing success throughout Europe, Nebular moves to a new, even more performing server infrastructure, which allows for improved security and efficiency and paves the way for new functions, such as the revolutionary credit management on the Cloud. Nebular thus becomes the vital center of the entire ecosystem of connected Coges products, a scalable architecture of intelligent devices that allows the Operator to choose for each location the hardware and software components that can bring him greater advantages and to modify them over time.

“NEBULAR is changing the way of understanding the vending business, freeing the services that can be offered to the user from the hardware limits of the vending machine,” says Daniele Ioriatti, Sales Manager of Coges. “This is not a single product, but a complete solution that each Operator can adapt to their needs and those of the location. When we talk about Nebular we are talking about the NEBULAR PAY contactless credit card reader, which recreates the immediacy and speed of purchasing of the retail environment on the vending machine, the MYKEY key with QR code to enable online credit top-up, the new PALLADIUM TOUCH system with touchscreen display and key credit management on the Cloud, which we will present in absolute preview at Venditalia. These are systems that offer unprecedented functions in vending and that integrate natively with the hardware of COGES ENGINE and the UNICA and HEXIS coin mechanisms.”

The Nebular platform is designed to accept the widest range of payment methods in vending and retail: cash, MyKey, MIFARE, credit cards, virtual wallets, mobile payment apps… The list is constantly growing with third party payment options such as ApplePay, Google Pay and Satispay. In this way, the Operator will be able to digitalize its relationship with all customers and involve them through loyalty programs, bonuses and exclusive functions such as online top-up and the user portal. Nebular also allows you to achieve operational excellence thanks to accurate data collection and sales reports, including real-time information on top-ups and credit balances on cashless media. Coges’ control over the entire platform and the life cycle of the individual parts reduces the need for maintenance and limits obsolescence, to meet the Operator’s needs today and in the future.

Among the new Nebular functions presented at Venditalia 2022, the spotlight will certainly fall on the possibility to transfer the storage of the key credit from MyKey to the Cloud. Credit on the Cloud offers the Operator total control over MyKeys and transactions, both in terms of security and credit management: MyKey lock in case of theft or loss, credit transfer from one MyKey to another and instant refund on the user’s MyKey. Furthermore, the transfer to Nebular enables the credit recharge on MyKey via credit card directly from the cogeskey.com portal via computer, smartphone or via the new Palladium Touch system.

The range of Coges payment systems is completed with new products that will be presented at Venditalia, starting with the new change-giver coin mechanism for vending machines SOFIS, a precise and functional MDB peripheral, able to guarantee the high performance necessary to meet all the needs of the Vending manager. The appointment at Fieramilanocity will also be an opportunity to review some of the payment systems unveiled over the last two years and already on the market, such as the Hexis change giver, the new MyKey and the small DYNAMOS cashless system.

From the cashless key to smart payment systems connected to the Cloud, for 45 years Coges has been using its experience to transform vending machines into smart systems, continuing to innovate to bring an increasing number of satisfied consumers into vending. From 11 to 14 May we will be at stand C43-D48 in Hall 3 in Venditalia, happy to come back to meet you in person and to present the future of the evolution of vending.
